The Merchant Prince Of Mordheim

With apologies to Shakespeare, etc etc. Having finished the City Watch, and still being out of Space Wolf-relevant paint, I had a good old rummage in the boxes last night and came up with the Marienburger warband for Mordheim. It's a lot smaller, made up as it is from various spare models and random kitbashes, but it does come in at 595 gold crowns and is a viable starting warband:

In the background you can see the Blood Claws, newly brought up to strength thanks to my bits box and a spare Marine body

Captain (light armour, duelling pistol, helmet, sword)
Champion (brace of pistols, helmet, sword)
Champion (light armour, halberd, helmet)
Youngblood (sword, dagger)
Youngblood (spear)

2 Swordsmen (light armour, swords, shields)
2 Marksmen (handguns)

My sort of mental image for this warband is that they're a ship's crew who've sailed through inland waterways to Mordheim and the Captain has taken a couple of cabin boys and a bunch of his ship's marines to go hunting for Wyrdstone. So far I've got most of the yellow blocked out, all the steel done, and am working on blocking out the red. Next up will be the blue. Not very subtle chaps, these Marienburgers...
